    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    He won't respond.. goes into hiding every single time and jumps back with every chance. If Messi had missed, which is not something shameful, with all that pressure on your shoulders, he would be all over this place. Football won today. Hoofball and insalah lost.

    World Cup 2022

    Even if they go out, this surely was Messi's best WC by far at 35 for some reason. Bad tactics after 2-0

    World Cup 2022

    A very different Brazil indeed. Cafu, Roberto Carlos, Kak?, Rivaldo, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and many others.

    Neymar Jr.

    Well, you can't blame him, he did more than his part until the penalties. But he should always take the first one, as the leader of the team.

    Temptation trying to pre-cope, and cover his basis, in case Argentina advance.

    World Cup 2022

    Moral of the story is "Never play for overtime or penalties against Croatia".

    World Cup 2022

    Yeah, the best S. American team just got dumped by a european footballing nation of 4m people.. Amazing individual players but hard to make a wining team out of them.

    Congrats once again to the Croats in the forum. Team made of steel.

    World Cup 2022

    Tactically and physically, the football has been far better than previous iterations, probably because players aren't exhausted from a full season and temperatures are tolerable. The technical level today is not that great in club level too, not only national.

    Probably though it would be better to stay and claim the glory (even if he doesn't play) for a possible WC win, than to leave and miss the chance to do so.

    24 - Eric García

    Since Spain crashed out of the world cup and generally performed poorly, we shouldn't take the coaches squad selections as proof of Players' quality or lack of. They would probably be better with Garcia playing in defense and Rodri in midfield in place of the relic. Garcia is certainly not that...

    6 - Gavi

    Pedri and Gavi are good talents, better than we had for a long time. Pedri has actually surpassed that level to being a really good player. Still, they are too young to be starting together for Barca / Spain midfield. Also, being a good talent in your teens is not 100% guarantee you will turn...

    6 - Gavi

    Argentina was also denied a clear goal for offside due to mistake in the var room, checking the wrong player, against s. Arabia. What does that tell us? Nothing really, mistakes happen even with var, just a lot less. Remember how the Spanish and Italians got fucked by the referees vs Korea? The...

    World Cup 2022

    Typing with phone.. many mistakes, should not tell you anything about "humans", like you are not. Hahaha Anyway, I had them predicted beating Spain, so it's not a matter of disrespect. Portugal is just too convincing for me.

    World Cup 2022

    First round of predictions with 100% success. For the next round I would go with: Argentina wins Netherlands (wishful thinking) Brazil wins Croatia Portugal wins maroco France wins England

    6 - Gavi

    Spain got the wrong end of the stick from the ref against maroco. Not anything outrageous, but small calls here and there were always against them. Don't think it affected the result though, they were useless.

    Yes, there is also the case of a bad matchup. Like Bayern is to Barcelona for some time now.

    Sergio Busquets

    Feeling fine it's not Barca this time, benefiting from his unique skills. But, will be back in camp Nou to lead the way to our next Europa league humiliation in no time.

    How could he claim a goal this game though ? He won't be able to sleep tonight. Portugal produce too much talent for their population. Will be a good contest with France. I expect them to beat maroco.
